    So we're at the point where winning every minute of a match against Bernard Hopkins, and decisively dominating him literally every second of every round of a 12 round match far better than everyone who'd previously shared the ring with him, and winning 6-7 rounds off of Andre Ward and keeping the other 5 razor close is now considered what? Subpar and limited? I want to hang myself.:facepalm:

    He's done that, it hasn't worked( monastery, soul searching) It is what it is, hes had enough now. No trainer is going to turn it around, he is too long in the tooth for change and too stubborn

    How on Earth do you have the time to write long articles,view virtually every half meaningful card around the globe,and do a million time consuming threads on fighters and controversial subjects like scoring?

    Serious question....Do you work? Have you got family or a woman? Do you box?

    I’m not being critical,I’m intrigued as to how you manage so much time on here.

    Its kind of an illusion, a sleight of hand so to speak.

    I rarely do my Educate Yourselves threads anymore, with the exception of last week's Rojas thread, the last one I did was Jono Carroll back in early July. Tonight I was just feeling shot out of a cannon and wanted to get a few of the ones I've had the back of my head done and had a ton of free time, also its the middle of the night, which is when I do most of my work on here, I'm kind of an insomniac.

    As far as the RBR's go, I put them up, and depending on my interest in the card, sometimes I stick around, sometimes I haul ass, and show up for the final 2 or 3 main events. I have a reliable set of guys that help me out and take the reins when I'm not on here. The only cards I truly set time aside for are the Saturday shows.

    As far as the articles go, I've only done 2 recently, the last one I did was months ago, I can't write as a job, I have to feel passion for what I'm writing, it has to come naturally, so, a notion will strike me and when the inspiration hits I can sit down and extemporaneously write one of my articles in an hour to an hour and a half tops. When I feel it, I feel it, when I don't, I don't force it. It helps that I'm naturally a verbose person, I've regularly gone on two hour non stop monologues to anyone who'll listen.:nut:

    So all in all, all I really do all that frequently on here is the RBR's. The rest is spread out sometimes I go months without doing something.

    As far as my personal life, it's complicated and I'd rather not go into it. The answers in short are, no, no, once in a while/fwb and no. But I'm doing okay financially.

    I was wondering if they are in fact an amalgamation of posters who share the password details so they can talk boxing 24/7.

    Its his description of stuff that catches my eye, he should be a writer of some sorts, and fights I couldn't give a **** about either IB or CST80 leave no stone unturned in description

    Krusher is done though..I have seen a change in him from years back now, its 1000% dedication related, not weak body, chin etc, he just doesn't love boxing enough to train

    If you dont train to win you arent a proper fighter anymore. Kovalev is going through the motions!
